We are so excited to have our very own Classroom 2.0 LIVE Superhero, Paula Naugle, with us today to share some of her favorite tips and tricks for Google searches and Chrome extensions. Have you wondered what Chrome extensions are and how to use them? Paula will explain what extensions are, show you how these little programs can add functions and features to your Chrome browser, and how you can personalize your browsing experience. She'll share how to find, add and manage extensions and which extensions she loves to use every day in her classroom. With so much information on the Internet, it can be difficult to sift through search results to find just the information you need - unless you know some tricks to narrowing your searches. As an additional bonus, you'll learn some Google search tips and tricks that will help you and your students search more effectively and efficiently to become a better online researcher.
Paula teaches 4th graders ELA and social studies at Bissonet Plaza, a suburban public school just outside New Orleans. She is passionate about preparing her students for their futures as 21st century digital citizens. They use web tools such as Edmodo, Skype, GlogsterEDU, kidblog.org, Google docs, and BrainPOP to do so. She presented both in person and virtually at many conferences at the state, national, and international level, including LaCUE, METC, AzTEA, TxVSN, TCEA Area 7, ISTE, and the INTEL ICT Conference. She is a Discovery STAR Educator, 2010-2011 Region 1 Educator of the Year, DEN LC, Microsoft Innovative Educator, Moderator for #4thchat #LAedchat #denchat, Edmodo Ambassador and a founding organizer of EdcampNOLA.
